Comparison of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values on Diffusion-Weighted MRI for Differentiating Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.

Conversely, CK-7, which was 100% positive in ICC and only 30% in HCC, showed highly significant differential expression ( p < 0.001), supporting its established role as a key marker for cholangiocytic differentiation [ 56 , 57 , 58 ].

33.3% in HCC), with borderline significance ( p = 0.0601), suggesting its complementary role in panels rather than as a standalone discriminator [ 59 , 60 , 61 ].

CD34, while not reaching statistical significance ( p = 0.0714), showed a strong trend toward HCC-specific expression and remains diagnostically useful, especially in combination with other markers [ 54 , 55 ].

CK-19 ( p = 0.0601) and CD34 ( p = 0.0714) approached significance, suggesting potential diagnostic utility with larger sample sizes.
